Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human GTPBP8 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- small GTP-binding protein domain
- ribosome biogenesis GTP-binding protein YsxC/EngB
- 50S ribosome-binding GTPase
- protein binding
- Elongation factor Tu GTP binding domain
- P-loop containing Nucleoside Triphosphate Hydrolases
